Trumpery Praxis

"I wasn't interested in the car parts per se, I was interested in either the color or the shape or the amount. I didn't want engine parts, I didn't want wheels, upholstery, glass, oil, tires, rubber, lining, what somebody'd left in the car when they dumped it, dashboards, steering wheels, shafts, rear ends, muffler systems, transmissions, fly wheels, none of that. Just the sheet metal." (J. Chamberlain, quoted in: J. Sylvester, John Chamberlain, a Catalogue Raisonné of the Sculpture 1954-1985, New York 1986, p. 15).
